RNS Number : 1867U In The Style Group PLC 24 March 2023
THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSES OF ARTICLE 7 OF
THE UK VERSION OF THE MARKET ABUSE REGULATION (EU) 596/2014 WHICH IS PART OF
UK LAW BY VIRTUE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION (WITHDRAWAL) ACT 2018.
For immediate release
24 March 2023
In The Style Group plc
Result of General Meeting
In The Style Group plc (AIM: ITS) ("In The Style" or the "Company"), announces
that, following the General Meeting held earlier today, the Sale Resolution
was duly passed by Shareholders on a poll.
It is therefore expected that Completion of the Sale will occur on 27 March
2023.
The Cancellation Resolution did not pass. Accordingly, admission of the
Company's Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM will not be cancelled on 5 April
2023.
As set out in the Circular, the Company intends, as soon as practicable, to
implement a members voluntary liquidation ("MVL") of the Company in order to
distribute the net proceeds of the Sale received by it. However, while these
net proceeds are expected to be approximately £500,000, the Company will need
to deduct the additional costs and expenses associated with the MVL, as well
as the general administrative costs of now having to remain an AIM-quoted
company, before the distribution of any residual value can be made to
Shareholders.
On Completion, the Company will become an AIM Rule 15 cash shell, with no
operating business. As the Company does not intend to enter into a Rule 14
Transaction, the Company's Ordinary Shares would be suspended from trading on
AIM six months after Completion (expected to be 27 September 2023), pursuant
to Rule 40 of the AIM Rules, if the MVL has not been concluded by that date.
Admission to trading on AIM would be cancelled six months from the date of
suspension.
The full text of each of the Resolutions is set out in the notice of General
Meeting, which is available on the Company's website at
www.https://corporate.inthestyle.com
(http://www.https:/corporate.inthestyle.com/.com) .
The following table sets out the total number of votes cast on each
Resolution.

law and was not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes
"For" or "Against" a resolution.
3. As at the date on which members had to be entered
in the register of members of the Company in order to be entitled to attend
and vote at the meeting, the issued share capital of the Company (the "ISC")
